, _(*1)

A PSR-11 compliant container that merges a set of PSR-11 containers. You might call it a container container., _(*2)

Requirements

Requires PHP 7.1, _(*3)

Installation

Through Composer, obviously:, _(*4)

composer require chrisharrison/merged-container

Why?

The PSR-11 container interface have the following properties:, _(*5)

• It's immutable. That means it can't be changed after it's been instantiated.
• It doesn't provide an iteration mechanism.

These two properties mean it's difficult to create a container which is a merge of two or more PSR-11 containers., _(*6)

This library provides a container which implements the PSR-11 interface. It's constructed by an array of other PSR-11 containers. These containers can use any concrete implementation (PHP-DI, Pimple) as long as they implement the PSR-11 interface., _(*7)

Usage

Create a merged container:, _(*8)

$merged = new MergedContainer([$container1, $container2]);

Use it like any other PSR-11 container., _(*9)
